MeshCore also works via esp-now


how so?


Serious answer:

* the module system literally just runs a script, so it can do -anything-. As a result there are 3 or 4 competing install systems all with their own cruft, some defined entirely using Perl as config, some using YAML. You need to have all of them installed.

* Of these, Module::Build is a common one written by someone who completely overengineered it, and it installs hundreds of dependencies, even though all it really does is just copy some files.

* Install scripts can do stuff like ask you interactive questions that prevent automated installation, which is a constant hindrance when packaging Perl modules e.g. to RPM

* Perl leaves literally everything up to external modules, including exporting functions or even defining module dependencies (e.g. 'use base', 'use autoclean', 'use Exporter' ...) and often the module config is written entirely in Perl rather than YAML or JSON file, so trying to do anything clever (like add IDE/language server support) is an absolute nightmare.

* The client to install new modules initially asks about 20 questions and does a slow mirror test, making it difficult to use in automated settings. Luckily someone wrote cpanminus which literally does exactly what you want - installs the damn package.


yes, but friction of the track is also a big factor.

Isn't the F-15EX usable for most air to ground strikes that A-10 is used today?


Isn’t the A-10 basically a 30mm auto cannon with wings attached to it? The last two times this came up there was nothing with that kind of power.

The F-15 has <checks> a 20mm gun with 15% less ammo.


How much CAS is done by strafing vs dropping bombs?


That cannon was an anti-tank weapon, but according to part 2 of the video series in this thread, it accounted for maybe 20% of their kills.

However the video also claims the avionics are garbage and misidentified targets were common. Civilians and friendly fire were often attacked by the A10 during Desert Storm I.


The F-15EX is more expensive than the F-35A, though.


contenteditable is pretty terrible if you want it to behave exactly the same on all browsers. that's why there are projects like CKeditor or TinyMCE.


Yes, the challenge is taming contenteditable. I'm using ProseMirror under the hood with custom models for <Plaintext> and <Richtext> editing, which you can adapt to your needs. One limitation (of ProseMiror) is that you don't have shared undo/redo across multiple editable areas. That's something we've solved with our own library Substance.js a while ago, but the API would be too verbose for this type of use-case, and we didn't reach that level of stability that ProseMirror has today. Web-based rich text editing is a very interesting space to watch, that imo affects web development in general.

I wrote about it here in more detail: https://letsken.com/michael/how-to-implement-a-web-based-ric...


You need more "Sponsorblock: skipped Ad" in your life.


as stated in readme, it's for legacy services that would require WS proxy.


nitpick: "lense" is not a word.
